Basic Process Procedure
Retrieve the raw data from the source (e.g., Internet) Reformat the data file to be compatible with Arc/Info Merge the data sets to form a larger continuous seamless
data set Customize the attributes information to meet the user
needs Project the merged data set to the desired projection Clip the data sets for the defined study region

Conclusions EIS can be beneficial for Environmental projects. Retrieving environmental information from the Internet is
efficient and cost-effective. A CD-ROM database management system provides wide
distribution range, simple structure and fast access speed. Microsoft Access can be integrated to ArcView as external
relational database management system. Internet Map Servers provides environmental information to
general publics.
